Chapter 384: She Cried
Kobets took his leave and went out, and what he had just said was a little unclear to Lin Jun -- he was going to transfer all the personnel and equipment left behind by the Air Force General Hospital here: Airport No. 6 originally had a certain scale of medical facilities, and there was still enough spare space for use as a field hospital. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
It was too dangerous for Vuginskaya to remain in the city, and it was a matter of luck that she was unharmed by the heavy bombardment today: Kobets knew that the basements of the hospital were of no use in the face of 500-kilogram aerial bombs.
It seems that the Soviets at the moment need an effective special-purpose night fighter, although the number is not needed, but there must be! Lin Jun knew the strengths and biases of the development of the Soviet aviation industry -- whoever developed the night fighter would be able to take the lead in the field of all-weather fighters in the future!
Lin Jun really couldn't remember whether the Soviet Union had developed night fighters during World War II, because the Soviet Union did not face many "Anglo-German" strategic air raids. But now this needs to be put on the agenda, but it cannot be rushed: the prototype is already available, but the on-board radar that a successful night fighter must be equipped with will not be available for a while.
"Using the Pi-2 high-speed dive bomber as a prototype, it was originally designed as a twin-engine high-speed fighter, and the performance should be better after subtracting unnecessary bombing facilities, and the changes that need to be made are not large, and the original production line can be completed. It's just that this radar can't be solved for a while, and it depends on whether the research institute can spare enough technicians. ”
Lin Jun calculated very well: according to the current level of aviation technology, the most effective night fighter is best to be twin-engine, to obtain sufficient endurance of the pursuit bomber formation, and to install enough space for night combat equipment. The prototype of the Pi-2 had a maximum speed of more than 620 kilometers per hour at an altitude of 6,000 meters, which is still the speed achieved under standard loads, and it is expected to reach the 650 kilometers mark after modifications. Of course, the maneuverability is not comparable to that of a single-engine fighter, but it should be no problem against the German bombers, that is, it is entangled with the German night fighters, and it will not fall behind in performance.
Firepower is not a problem: night fighters must need far more firepower than day fighters, and it is important to kill the enemy in one shot, because the window of attack time available in dark conditions is very limited - it is not a problem to dismantle the bombing equipment and cram enough cannons into the nose. The British used the "mosquito" type to transform an effective night combat type, and the Germans followed this line of thought at the beginning, so the Soviet Union can do it.
"The magazine can be used as an additional fuel tank, or add four 23mm cannons to the back, and also make an "oblique fire" song. ”
The "oblique fire", the "unofficial" equipment used by German night fighters, was to stuff several cannons into the back of the aircraft at a certain angle, and launch them from the belly of the target during the attack - a single burst of fire can disembowel the opponent! It can also largely avoid the threat of defensive machine guns in the rear of the target, and if there is an "oblique fire" on Sergei's plane today, it is estimated that he will not be so embarrassed.
Many British bombers attacked by "oblique fire" (the Allies bombed German strategic targets, generally at night by the British Royal Air Force, during the day by the United States Army Air Corps. At the last moment, he didn't realize that his opponent was under him
However, the "oblique fire" was a whim of the Germans under special circumstances, and whether it was necessary and effective still needs to be demonstrated, and the main force of German bombers was not the British Lancaster. The "oblique firing song" also has its own weaknesses -- if it is a formation that pursues and returns, the pilots can shoot boldly with confidence, but if it is an interception, they have to take it easy: because an attack from the bottom up is very likely to hit the bomber's bomb compartment, and it is often only a few dozen meters away from the target, and the violent explosion of the bomb may put itself in it, and this is how some German night fighters lose in a daze.
At this moment, Lin Jun felt that he had really thought too carefully - he would always try his best to think about everything, and many times the comrades below just carried it out completely according to their own wishes, and the structure of the reflex special sight he needed to "oblique firing warp" just now was under consideration: this was not the best plan.
"Let the designer comrade consider the argument." Finally, I didn't think much about it, and I fell into a little dazed on the marching bed. The annoying eczema doesn't seem to itch much anymore, and Rudwich's formula seems to be quite effective.
Early the next morning, Lin Jun saw Sergei who was delivered by truck. The colonel, who had a plaster cast on his arm and a neck guard around his neck, was unable to walk because he was bitten twice by a bullet on his leg, and was carried on a stretcher by soldiers to the airport hospital.
Kobets transferred Sergei to the airfield to serve as a senior staff officer to the brigade commander, and when his injuries improved, he was sent to Moscow. Sergei is very similar to Lin Jun, even if he is injured, he is not honest, he does not want to stay in the ward, so he puts himself in the rest area next to the tarmac, and makes a recliner to lie down and point fingers.
Sergei didn't know that Lin Jun was here, and when he saw it, his eyes were bloodshot, but Lin Jun, who had a stern expression, looked a little ashamed.
"Captain." Sergey didn't know what to say.
Lin Jun motioned for him to shut up and moved a chair to sit next to him: "How about the leg injury?" ”
"It's okay, just wipe it twice, and the stitches can be removed in a week. It's estimated that this arm will take two months, otherwise it won't work. ”
Sergei's head was a little stiff, because he was wearing a neck guard, "just lie down and talk, you don't have to turn around." ”
"I have informed Moscow that you will go to Moscow in a few days. Kobets will have your fighter plane repaired, and other pilots will fly it for you. The Central Committee is very concerned about your situation, and this time you should do a good job of propaganda work when you go back, and a special comrade will prepare a speech for you. Also, Comrade Stalin will award you with honors and promote you to military ranks. ”
"Captain, I can't stay in the rear, you have to make sure that I return to the army as soon as possible."
Sergei is not afraid of anything else, he is afraid that he will be forbidden to continue to fight in the air, and this is very likely!
"It's a general when you come back, don't worry, I won't let you be idle, but it's not a special situation that you can't use yourself as a captain! The nomination to award you the title of "Hero of the Soviet Union" for the third time did not go through, and the promotion to your military rank will be considered compensation. ”
"Captain, you're going to make me ashamed."
Sergei, of course, understood what this was for, and he did not have a single opinion in his heart - in his heart, the captain was the real king of the air, the god of war in the hearts of himself and all the pilots, and he must not walk in front of the captain.
"If there was no captain, there would be no today!" Sergey has always admonished himself like this. Lin Jun's reputation in Moscow can be compared with Budyonny and Voroshinov, but his "short-guarding" is to treat all his subordinates as real comrades and brothers, and naturally won the unconditional support of his comrades.
"Porainin will arrive at the airport before noon to coordinate the fight against the Luftwaffe night attack, and if you can, you can also join the meeting."
"Bombing the Luftwaffe base?"
"Campaign and strategic bombing on all fronts to weaken the Germans' air attack capabilities."
"I'll participate."

The commander of the bomber unit had not yet arrived, and the convoy of doctors and wounded from the city arrived first, and Lin Jun saw his wife. Vuginskaya didn't expect her husband to be here, and she fainted when she saw her husband with a haggard look!
His wife fell into his arms, and Lin Jun ran to the emergency room of the hospital with his wife in his arms, which made everyone on the side break out in a cold sweat!
Leonov glanced at Landskozy and then ran to the emergency room with Lin Jun, who stopped the crowd behind: "Do what you have to do, shut your mouth!" Dr. Grevich pulled together: "What's going on?!" ”
"Comrade Colonel is tired, he didn't rest for the past few days, and yesterday ~~"
Comrade military doctor is a little speechless, can imagine the tragic situation of the air force hospital yesterday. Vuginskaya has always been strong, but no matter how strong a woman is, she has a limit: after working for several days and nights in a row, and being extremely physically tired, she has suffered a huge mental blow, and her will has always persevered!
The wounded are the people that the military doctor cares about the most, so many comrades died in the fascist air raids, and Vukinskaya, who came out of the operating room, has been on the front line to rescue the wounded, and it is the spirit and will that keep her going, because she knows that she will not be able to fall there. When she suddenly saw her lover and her spiritual support, Vuginskaya's spirit suddenly relaxed, and fatigue crushed her like a flood that burst her banks, and she fell into her husband's arms!
The people at the airport helped carry the wounded, took all the equipment on board to the field hospital, and no one discussed what had just happened: it was not just because of Landscochie's warning, because they could understand.
The small room was very quiet, and Lin Jun seemed to be able to hear the drip sound of the glucose sling. He wiped his smoky face with hot water and towels from his comatose wife, and even his hands were carefully wiped clean, just like a newborn baby.
Quietly I don't know how long it took, Vuginskaya finally opened her eyes and saw her husband alone with her - she cried, crying so sadly, Lin Jun's heart was broken when she cried.
