After saying that, he didn't know whether to be happy or angry with a straight face, and led the large group of officers away.

It was in Wangjiazhuang, five miles northwest of the county seat of Suixian, that the Southern Expeditionary Army was stationed. The terrain here is open, which is conducive to the landing of helicopters.

Li Zongren also made good arrangements, and the ammunition, food, and oil needed by the Southern Expeditionary Army were all fully supplied. Helicopters were transported overnight, first with artillery, then with parts from tanks. Some people from the Arsenal King Weapons also came to the base in Wangjiazhuang and began to assemble tanks.

Everything went according to plan and in an orderly manner.

But what is supposed to come is still coming, and during the war, danger and disaster always come to these brave soldiers.

On the night of April 28, the last transport. After this trip, all the personnel, materials, and equipment of the Southern Expeditionary Army will complete their tasks.

In this flight, Zhang Fei was responsible for piloting a Z-8 helicopter in front, followed by 11 Z-8 helicopters, and on each helicopter, the red lights were flashing constantly. On the left and right, there are 2 J-20 fighters escorting.

When passing by the suburbs of Wuhan, Zhang Fei felt that something was not quite right, and from time to time there were searchlights shining into the sky over Wuhan. Pillars of light, like demons, danced in the air.

Zhang Fei's heart was shocked, it could be that the sky over Wuhan was prepared.

Zhang Fei had no choice but to issue an order to each helicopter: "All planes should pay attention, all planes should pay attention, strengthen observation, increase the flight altitude, from 3,000 meters to 4,000 meters." ”

Theoretically, the higher you fly, the less chance you have of being hit by the enemy.

According to Zhang Fei's instructions, the planes were rising upward. 4000 meters is high enough, and if it is higher, the crew on the plane may be a little unbearable.

Just as he was about to fly out of the suburbs of Wuhan, suddenly, the searchlights on the ground turned on together, and the pillars of light shot into the sky.

These pillars of light will greatly disturb the driver's eyes.

In the past, there were no searchlights here, so why are there so many here now, it could be that the Japanese army has set up an ambush here.

Zhang Fei led the way in front, and something more terrifying happened, a balloon array appeared in front, and there were constantly balloons rising and flying into the sky.

The balloon array consists of thousands of balloons, each filled with hydrogen and each with an iron chain tied to its tail. Due to the difference in speed, if a pigeon flies in the sky, it is possible to crash an airplane, let alone thousands of balloons with chains strapped to them.

That is to say, there are thousands of time bombs in front of you!

Zhang Fei hurriedly shouted: "Attention to all machines, attention to all machines, there is an obstacle ahead." Machines need to be careful and quietly avoid these obstacles. ”

If only they had been able to avoid the balloon array, but it was too late, and the helicopter formation had already broken into the balloon array, surrounded by thousands of balloons.

The Japanese anti-aircraft guns also lost no time in firing.

"Boom-" "Boom-" The smoke clouds that exploded in the air were like demons, and the radius of shrapnel could reach 80 meters, while others could reach 100 meters.

As long as a piece of shrapnel hits it, the thin aluminum plate on the helicopter will not be able to withstand its blow at all.

Columns of light with searchlights disturbed the pilot's eyes, countless balloons with chains in the air, and shells that constantly exploded. Zhang Fei's helicopter formation can be said to have encountered a very dangerous situation.

Such a dangerous situation is really difficult to deal with, and you can only rely on keen eyes, superb flying skills and good luck.

Zhang Fei had no choice but to issue another order: "Fly independently, avoid these dangerous obstacles, fly over and then form a formation." Be careful, everyone! Be careful! ”

Zhang Fei's meaning of being cautious is also the danger from the air formation's own team, that is, in dodging these balloon chains, he can't collide with his own plane in the air.

The helicopter's 12.7mm heavy machine gun also began to fire, that is, to break through the balloon around the helicopter, relying on the weight of the iron chain to make it fall as quickly as possible so as not to hurt its own helicopter.

Because of the limited vision in the night, coupled with the back-and-forth sweeping of the searchlight, it stimulates people's eyes, so the effect is not great.

Zhang Fei saw a balloon chain in front of him, Zhang Fei flew to the left and dodged, just when he turned the corner, another balloon chain appeared, Zhang Fei flew to the right again, and dodged. Just as he had just dodged the two chain balloons, he suddenly felt that the propeller was a little abnormal, as if it had been entangled in something.

"Not good!" Zhang Fei screamed, needless to say, the iron chain entangled the propeller.

The plane's speed also began to have problems, and the engine was whining. Fortunately, the chain was quickly thrown off by the propeller, but one of the propeller blades was also injured, and the plane did not appear to be very nimble.

The worst thing was that one of the helicopters in the back was directly hit by a shell. With a "boom-" sound, the helicopter was injured and a fire broke out in the air. In the midst of the fire, more than a dozen warriors fought valiantly against the flames.

There were two fire extinguishers in the cabin, and two fighters took them and sprayed them violently at the flames. A fire extinguisher with too little energy can't suppress the blazing flames at all, and after the fire extinguisher is sprayed, it still can't cover the burning of the fire.

The warriors took off their clothes one after another and used their clothes to fight the flames, hoping that the clothes they threw out would extinguish the burning flames. But after a while, the fire was not extinguished, but burned more and more. The flames generated a high temperature, and the aluminum plate of the helicopter had softened somewhat, and the plane began to fall.

Several of the fighters were exhausted and fell into the flames. Some of the fighters were choked and coughed vigorously, and it seemed that they were almost at the limit of their patience.

Zhang Fei was not far away, he was in a hurry, how much he hoped that these soldiers would be able to parachute. But they don't have umbrellas, and they don't have such training, so if they parachute, they have to fall to their deaths.

The helicopter fell faster and faster, scattered in the air, and more than a dozen soldiers, scattered artillery mounts and the wreckage of the helicopter were scattered in mid-air, turning into a burst of spring rain, moistening the earth......

Zhang Fei's heart was bleeding, and some of the soldiers on the helicopter were shouting: "My comrades-in-arms, my comrades-in-arms ......" Some soldiers couldn't bear to see this tragic scene and turned their heads.

Another helicopter crashed into the balloon chain, and with a "bang", the glass of the cockpit was smashed, the pilot also fainted, the instrument panel was also smashed, and the aircraft's control mechanism was also seriously damaged.

Before the other crew could get up and re-operate the plane, the plane had already begun to tilt badly.

The plane was tilted excessively, so that the personnel in the cabin and the parts of the gun carriage were suddenly together. Some fighters were smashed, and some fainted in pain. However, the more dangerous thing is still to come, and the imbalance in the cabin directly makes the aircraft more difficult to control.

The new pilot went up and failed to control the helicopter's balance.

The plane fell directly from the sky, and in the fall, the plane was even more difficult to control.

The plane fell faster and faster, and finally came into close contact with the earth, and with a "boom", it was immortalized in the flames......

Zhang Fei closed his eyes and felt a burst of heartache, he really couldn't bear to see this tragic scene.

Without waiting for him to be sad and painful, his Z-8 helicopter also encountered great difficulties. As one propeller blade was injured, the other five propeller blades rotated unbalanced, and the aircraft vibrated violently.

Zhang Fei is also an old mechanic, he understands that in this case, it is not possible to fly fast, if you fly too fast, the vibration of the aircraft will be even more powerful, and it may damage other parts to a certain extent. Such a vicious circle can lead to even greater damage or even the failure of the entire aircraft.

Zhang Fei said to the other helicopter pilots: "Please fly to the intended target under the cover of Li Yu's J-20 fighter." I might have to fly back a little slower, my plane was injured. ”

Zhao Xiaoting, the pilot of the No. 2 helicopter, objected: "Your helicopter needs support, and if we fly back and your helicopter does not get support, it will be even more troublesome." ”

Zhang Fei said to Zhao Xiaoting solemnly: "I repeat it again, please ask your helicopters to fly to the intended target under the cover of J-20 fighters. I'm just a point, if I hesitate any longer, our entire formation may suffer even greater losses. ”

Zhao Xiaoting still objected, saying: "The single plane was injured and fell behind, which is very dangerous." Your orders, we will not be able to carry them out. ”

Even Li Yu on the J-20 fighter raised an objection, and he shouted at Zhang Fei: "Captain Zhang, there is a problem with your order?" It's dangerous that you don't have a single helicopter formation and J-20 fighters to support you. Fly as far as you can, we've got you covered. ”

Zhang Fei was so angry that he scolded: "Do you still have me as the captain in your hearts, let's go back and settle the score." Before going back to settle accounts, there is still salvation. That is, you must carry out my orders and fly to your intended target first. ”

No matter how much Zhang Fei shouted at his throat, no one obeyed his orders anymore.

Zhang Fei was still furious, but he couldn't care about it, the plane had already tilted severely, and the damaged propeller blade had fallen off, and in the process of falling off, the other good propeller blade was also broken.

This means that two of the six-bladed propeller blades have been damaged, and the plane is no longer controllable, and it is constantly falling.

Zhang Fei shouted: "Not good! Please note that the plane has lost control, please hold on to the handrails to prevent each other from running over and falling off the plane. ”

The officers and men all know that the final moment has come, and it is inevitable that there will be temporary chaos. "Oh my god, it's over." "Wife, take care of the children, that's my wish." "Damn the plane, the damn devil, oops, it's over like this, I can't bear it!" "Oh God, God, God......"

The instinct of man to survive clings to what is fixed on the helicopter so as not to cause greater danger due to the imbalance of the body.
