February in Faping is still cold. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info after the sun in the sky is westward, and the temperature drops

Under the only row of parking sheds at Nanyuan Airport, laughter was loud, and the head of the advisory group, Colonel Owen, was carrying a small half-bottle of whiskey and reclining on a sturdy pillar. While listening to Stevens joking with the boys of the 12th Brigade, he also watched the drunk and red-faced captain Lin Fei use black paint to draw a five-pointed star on the fighter plane that had just been maintained.

According to Stevens's suggestion, Lin Fei happily drew three solid five-pointed stars and four hollow five-pointed stars, the all-black solid five-pointed star represents the downed enemy plane, the hollow five-pointed star with only the border line represents the number of enemy planes damaged, and the seven five-pointed stars well mark the achievements of Lin Fei in the morning air battle.

At noon, An Yi's congratulatory telegram arrived first, and an hour later, the North China Theater Command and Chairman Chiang's telegram of encouragement arrived one after another, along with these two telegrams, along with five boxes of Scotch whisky, which An Yi entrusted the brothers of the Quartermaster Department to buy from the British Jardine Matheson in Beiping City to send to the Nanyuan Airport in Fengtai, and the major who delivered the wine Lehehe conveyed An Yi's message: three boxes were the gambling books lost to Stevens, and the other two boxes were given to Lin Fei, who had worked hard, and Mr. Owen, the teacher of the An Jiajun Aviation Unit.

Everyone who was eating was very happy. Stevens said that he did not expect Ann to fulfill his promise so quickly, and without hesitation, he ordered a pilot apprentice to carry two boxes back to his dormitory, leaving one box to open immediately, and invite all the brothers present to have a drink.

The bold Lin Fei immediately announced that he had opened all his boxes, and everyone who saw them had a share, which made dozens of brothers cheer in unison with joy.

Owen took advantage of everyone's lack of attention. Instructed An Yi to carry the wine back to his dormitory with his captain's secretary, unapologetically grabbed someone else's bottle and opened it, drank a big gulp before raising it, cheered and drank with everyone, swallowed a big sip of wine and immediately announced that all of them would have a half-day holiday this afternoon.

Everyone cheered again, toasted each other frequently, talked freely about Stevens and Lin Fei's boldness and carefulness, and won by surprise, admiring the achievements and luck of the two, until half past four in the afternoon, they dispersed in twos and threes, and the remaining seven or eight were all backbones such as the deputy squadron leader of the brigade.

Lin Fei listened to Slovens's suggestion to draw a five-pointed star under the cabin of the fighter plane to show the battle record, and happily invited everyone to go to the parking garage together, Owen thought about it and nodded in agreement, after all, it is much more comfortable to drink in the warm sun and fresh air in the empty airport than to drink indoors.

Stevens, who had already drunk two and a half bottles, was very excited, knowing that he would be able to verify the results in the next two days. Like Owen, he will be awarded the honorary colonel of the Chinese Air Force, a far-reaching and glorious honor that only two foreigners have ever been stunned of, one is Short, an aircraft salesman who died in the 128th Anti-Japanese War in Shanghai. One is the current boss, Owen, who has commanded two aviation brigades of the An Jiajun in the past few months, and Stevens will become the third foreigner to receive this honor, how can he not be proud? He even imagined his girlfriend, who was still in the United States, giving up her life and kissing her after seeing his honor.

The humorous bombing instructor Martin's dead joke. provoked the brothers to burst into laughter, and after Stevens finished laughing, he suddenly turned to Lin Fei, who was happily wiping his hands:

"Lin, I suddenly remembered something very interesting. It stands to reason that Akagi Airport was repaired by us. However, General Yan Xishan did not seem to want us to be stationed there, and before we left, he sent a company of troops to "protect." We, made us very uncomfortable. It's been almost two weeks since we evacuated Chicheng Airport, and I don't know what happened to that beautiful party, and I don't know if General Yan Xishan's plane dares to enter the airport. ”

Everyone burst into laughter again, and Owen immediately straightened his face and said something to stop: "Steven (Stevens's nickname), you drank so much wine. If you can't get on the plane, don't forget the discipline of An Jiajun, I don't want you to be fired just after you receive the medal. ”

Stevens stuck out his tongue, and quickly dispelled the idea of going out to fight for the enemy again, and the brothers did not dare to be presumptuous in the face of military discipline, so they put away their smiles one by one and pulled them to other places.

Lin Fei quickly put on his flight cap, buckled up his flight suit, and ran out to tell the ground crew to help him pull the plane out and start it, Owen hurriedly put the wine bottle on the ground, walked quickly to the plane, and looked up at Lin Fei who had climbed into the cabin. He said with a serious face: "Lin, you have also drunk, and you are all resting this afternoon, all tasks have been canceled, although I have handed over the command after withdrawing and have no right to give orders to you, but I suggest that you better not take off." ”

Lin Fei buckled his flight cap, stuck out his head and replied disappreciatively: "Owen, it was originally my patrol mission this afternoon, and I decided on a temporary battle plan this morning, so I followed Steven out for a walk, and everyone ran out of wine just now." I didn't drink much, so after thinking about it, I decided to go ahead with my original plan.

"Thank you for the reminder, Owen, don't worry. The planes have been maintained, the fuel and ammunition have been replenished, and I will not go to war with the Japanese. Complete the routine flight mission and come back immediately, haha! Look, Owen, the sunset comes in very quickly, and you often say it's the most beautiful time of the day. Is that right? ”

"Owen, let him go, with this guy's technology and good performance of the aircraft, even if he encounters a Japanese plane, he can easily avoid it, it's okay!"

Stevens has a deep personal relationship with Lin Fei, who came back from the United States, and he can't fly after drinking too much, but he is very willing to see his old friend go out for a walk.

Owen saw that the others were also eager to try, and knew that Lin Fei could not be persuaded to do so, but fortunately, at this time, it was close to evening, and due to the restrictions of distance and night take-off and landing, the Japanese planes would basically not stay in the air far from the airport at night, and Lin Fei would be relatively safe even if he flew to Chengde to the airspace.

After thinking about it again and again, Owen had no choice but to shrug his shoulders and whisper to Lin Fei, and finally sent Lin Fei and the fighter plane to the runway with his brothers.

Owen turned around and immediately ordered the combat staff officer to notify An Yi's former enemy command, in case Tu Zhirong's air defense brigade's more and more experienced generals misunderstood Lin Fei and knocked Lin Fei down.

As for the other armies, Owen was not worried at all, except for Yan Xishan's Jin Sui army, which had more than thirty old planes, all that was left of the other armies was a pitiful few special transport planes and because they were afraid of being beaten down by the Japanese flying power after taking off. Almost all of them were hidden in front of a grove to the west of the airport, and the planes were covered with wide camouflage nets. It's been a long time since I flew.

Approaching evening, the ancient city of Chengde under the sunset. Covered with a layer of golden outline, the towering city tower on the south gate of the soft first. It's still so majestic and solemn.

A sound of horses' hooves sounded, eight war horses walked out of the city gate, running on the wide and flat road, running in front of a black and yellow two war horses are very strong, carrying the owner quickly rushed into the wide wheat field next to the road that grew several inches high galloping to read the latest children's day on the washing stream books and drying fine concave Shan) novel Qi umbrella spider claw, behind the six Japanese lieutenants also hit the horse and followed closely ※

Riding a black horse and running in front was the commander of the 7th Independent Mixed Brigade stationed in Chengde, Ishikawa Koichi, and running on a yellow horse beside Ishikawa was the captain of the wing, Chopaira Junji, who had a better and better relationship.

Twenty minutes later, Ishikawa and the others finished their daily happy horseback riding pastime after dinner, returned to the road, dismounted for a while, and wiped off their sweat.

Junji Chobara remembered the battle report he received in the afternoon. Asked Shi "Haoyi" loudly: "Shi" Jun, are the two infantry brigades and one cavalry wing of the Eighth Division really unable to take Gubeikou? He inscribed the stone gang net to get the support of two chariot teams. There is also a powerful aviation force to help the battle, and if you launch another fierce attack and break through the frontal position, can't you succeed? ”

Shi Hao threw a towel to the attendant officer. took out a cigarette and lit one, handed the cigarette case and lighter to Chopsticks Hara Junji, and sighed slightly:

"This battle is not easy to fight! General Saiyi was very difficult. Although the personnel and weapons were quickly replenished. There are two more, a combat convoy and a heavy artillery brigade. However, the squadron of Gubeikou has also increased to four divisions of nearly 60,000 people, all of which are the main force of the Central Army, and the independent division of the ace division of the air defense brigade has been added to Gubeikou, and in the past few days, our army's aviation has lost more than 20 planes in Gubeikou, and the ground forces have been repelled by the defenders' powerful firepower in four attacks.

"It is estimated that the main direction of attack is ultimately on the eastern front of the Great Wall, where although there are many enemy troops, it is the weakest link in the entire line of defense, and the take-off airfield of the air force is very close to the eastern front, so it can easily fight continuously, moving round after round of concentrated bombing, with the fierce attack of the infantry, and another. China's local forces could not match Chiang Kai-shek's Central Army, and there was bound to be a breakthrough under the onslaught. ”

Junji Chophara understood, and nodded frequently: "That's true, to say something that damages the majesty of the soldiers, my subordinates think that none of our Kwantung Army units want to meet an opponent like An Jiajun now" Ishikawa-kun, what should we do next? ”

"Wait! As long as our army breaks through any pass on the first line of the Great Wall, the squadron will inevitably fall into chaos, and when the time comes, we will draw out the strength of a wing, with the cooperation of the cavalry brigade, suddenly attack the front line of Fengning in Dixi, and then enter Zhangjiakou. The enemy's forces on the Duolun front line will surely retreat in great strides, and the pressure on our northern route army will be greatly reduced. And then completely occupy the Duolun region and coerce it to return to Sui, so that the entire Mongolian region will be ours.

"Just control the Rehe and Chahar areas. It can vigorously oppress Shanxi, which is full of high-quality coal mines, and even if it does not attack for the time being, it can win the great political and military initiative for our great Japanese Empire, and its role is not under the Great Wall! Koichi Ishikawa explained in detail to his right-hand men.

Junji Phihara looked at Shi "Luoyi" with admiration: "Ishikawa-kun, compared to you, I am far from myself now!" Ishikawa-kun will take care of me in the future! ”

Shi "Haoichi held Junji Chopsticks Hara, who bowed his head and saluted: "Chopsticks Hara-kun don't be polite, you and I are both officers of the empire, let's work together." ”

"Hey!"

There was a roar of airplanes, and Koichi Ishikawa looked up in surprise to see a plane of his own flying from the northeast, the altitude was very low, the degree was very slow, and soon it flew overhead and flew southwest.

Ishikawa Hiroshi muttered, feeling that it was really surprising that his fighter plane was still flying in the direction of Beiping at this time. He shook his head and didn't think much about it, tidied up and turned on his horse, and led his subordinates to slowly beat the horse and return home. While walking, he exchanged views on the aviation with Junji Chobara, who came to his side at the same time.

The plane that just passed was the camouflage plane piloted by Lin Fei, Lin Fei flew to Chicheng, and went around the original airport, seeing the panicked Jin Yujun running around the airport as Stevens guessed, he couldn't help laughing, and happily flew to the northeast, from the north direction into the empty and bright sky over Chengde.

The Japanese troops in Chengde City and on the city wall mistakenly thought it was their own plane, and they waved stupidly. Lin Fei wanted to throw a bomb but was afraid of hurting innocent people. I can only resist the impulse and deliberately fly low to check it.

Lin Fei flew over the south of the city, raised the altitude and added it back, and suddenly a small group of Japanese cavalry on the road appeared, which seemed to be a group of officers. So Lin Fei drove the plane back again, lowered the altitude to see the distance, pressed the bomb dropping switch, unhurriedly pulled up the nose of the plane, turned at a high altitude, and prepared to fly back to shoot a few shuttle cannons to eliminate the remnants, and then easily flew back to the base.

Koichi Ishikawa and the others on the horse saw that the plane flew back again, and the altitude seemed to be lower, they all slowed down, looked up, and suddenly saw two black bombs smashed down on the head, Koichi Ishikawa was so frightened that he shouted loudly, turned the horse's head, and whipped desperately, and the war horse jumped up suddenly under the pain. Rush to the city walls, but it's too late. A bomb exploded more than 20 meters behind Ishikawa Hiroichi, and another smashed down more than 10 meters in front of the right, followed by a firelight accompanied by a deafening explosion, rising into the sky, a piece of shrapnel lightning flew, the black horse neck that rushed forward was split into two, the horse's head flew away from the horse's body a few meters away, and the blazing horse blood flew out, and the horse that lost its head was hit by the shock wave and flew up, and the stone on the horse "wailed, was thrown into the sky, leaped more than ten meters in the firelight, and fell heavily on the road.

After the explosion, the Japanese patrol not far away quickly got up from the ground and rushed to the explosion point, there was no one on the road where the smoke was rolling, and just when the soldiers stopped in panic, they fell to the ground covered in blood "Koichi suddenly struggled to stand up, holding a large pile of red, red and white intestines flowing out of his abdomen with both hands, howled, and fell straight back.

The soldiers were taken aback and rushed forward with shouts. Rescue with all hands and feet.

In the blue sky, Lin Fei, who saw the fire on the ground and the smoke billowing from gunpowder, gave up shooting, raised the flight altitude again, blew a cheerful whistle, and returned home.

Lin Fei had no idea that he had inadvertently killed one of the Japanese Seventh Independent Brigade. Wing Commander, two Lieutenants and four Lieutenants. He also blew up the brigade commander Shi "Hao Yizuo so much that his abdomen opened a big mouthful, and a large handful of intestines flowed out of his stomach, and he didn't know whether he was dead or alive.

Lin Fei, who had experienced many fierce battles, didn't care at all about throwing two bombs and killing the soldiers for a few days, so he didn't say anything after he went back, but he didn't know that it was because of his two bombs that the Japanese Eighth Division and the Chengde garrison were mobilized on a large scale. The 7th Independent Brigade was furious. He asked to be transferred to serve as the main force in the attack on Gubeikou, and to avenge his beloved Ishikawa Brigade commander and the commander of the Chopstickahara Wing, who was loved and respected by the officers and soldiers.
