Chapter 58: Running Alarm 3
According to past experience, Japanese planes will soon drop shiny bombs from their silver-white stomachs -- 28 September the year before last was the first time that Japanese planes bombed Kunming, and only the students who had experienced the Changsha bombing ran the alarm during that bombing, and the ordinary people of Kunming were still gathered in the city to see the surprise, with the result that nine enemy planes dropped 28 bombs, killing 190 people and injuring more than 260 people on the spot. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
On that occasion, when the students were in the suburbs, they could see very clearly the Japanese planes: the Japanese planes were lined up in the sky, and the bombs came out of their silver-white stomachs, and they were just thrown out probably because the wings were blocking the light and they looked like black spots, but when the planes flew over, they were extremely dazzling, and the bombs fell like a group of mercury balls, which were dazzling, followed by a sound of 'squeak s......queak', and then a sound of 'boom-', and if you got close, you would feel the ground shake.
When the navy plane dropped the silver bomb, Wu Jikang didn't know what it was, but when the plane flew by, those bombs fell like mercury balls, and even the extremely frightened girls knew that the shiny thing was a bomb. They immediately closed their eyes, their bodies tensed, one hand covering their mouths, and their hairs stood on end. Wang Shouwu and the boys were surprised at first, but when they saw that the bomb was blowing up a Japanese plane, they jumped up in surprise. Zhuang Liting was the most excited, he jumped and pointed to the sky and looked back to say something, but he opened his mouth and stammered, and after a while he shouted: "Bomb and bomb!" Bomb for bomb! This is bombing and bombing! ”
Zhuang Liting's shouting made the girls open their eyes again, and there were still dark clouds of Japanese bombers in the sky, but these hateful things were exploding one after another, and they exploded into fireballs, turning into countless fragments and falling from the sky. There is no more relieving scene than this, Sang Lanhua, who has not closed her eyes, immediately applauded, she said to everyone: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, the Japanese are being pressed and beaten." ”
The bombs thrown by the blue plane were just a wave, and after the continuous explosions, the Japanese plane's character array was still not chaotic. The blue planes also seemed to know that they couldn't blow up the Japanese, and after dropping the bombs, they shook their wings and flew high. They lined up in a neat queue around half of Kunming City, and when the Japanese machine approached the east gate of the city wall, Huo Ran aimed at the word "Pin" and rushed straight over.
The sky seemed to be unable to carry so many planes, and space seemed to distort and fluctuate. First, the Japanese plane fired, and countless small points of light rushed towards the oncoming blue plane, the girl screamed, and everyone's hearts were raised, but the blue plane still charged in a neat line. Seeing that this blue and green were about to collide in the sky over Kunming, the light suddenly appeared, the blue plane fired, it was not a point of light, it was a lightsaber, an airplane with four lightsabers, straight towards the green group of stabs, explosions, fire, debris, black smoke ......, as if the sky had fallen, countless countless planes shattered in the air, countless countless planes fell from the sky.
Wang Shouwu's eyes were filled with tears, which flowed unconsciously from him. At this time, the sky was in chaos, and he thought that the brave blue, the blue of hope, and the beloved blue had died with the Japanese. But when his tears fell, the sky filled with gunpowder suddenly flashed, and groups of blue planes came out of the gunsmoke, their formation was a little scattered, and even there were vacancies, and a few planes were still on fire, but they still flew out, and then climbed proudly, looking down at the enemy planes and the earth.
"Good! Well played!! Not only did Wang Shouwu see the blue group, but others also saw the blue group, and the hillside was full of shouts and cheers. In the midst of these cheers, the group of planes that drilled out the smoke of fire turned around and swooped down. Just now, the Japanese 'Pin' array was not chaotic at all, the smoke of gunpowder was blown away, the dark green array was full of holes, they could no longer withstand the impact, and when the blue group of planes dived, they finally fled in all directions, and even so, they were still pursued, hit, or exploded or fell. The whole sky is blue, green, yellow, red and black, plus the white parachute opened by the crash crew in mid-air, which is colorful.
"We won! We won!! Seeing this scene, many people shouted and began to declare victory.
"The Navy won!" Looking at the fleeing Japanese bombers being chased in the air, Chennault, who had been looking up from the top of the mountain, agreed with this result with some sourness. Although the number of 52 saboteur attack planes against more than 150 Japanese bombers was 1 to 3, the method used by the navy was very correct; not to mention the first bombing, although the losses in the array hedging were very great -- he and Billy and others had just counted in detail, and the navy had lost at least 15 planes in this attack, but this kind of desperate and desperate attack could crush the psychology of the Japanese pilots to the greatest extent, making them feel that the array was no longer safe and that they were already a live target to be beaten.
The bombers were slow and inflexible, and the only way to counter the fighters was to form a formation to protect themselves, and once the pilots had the illusion that the array was no longer safe, they were finished, and the rest of the battle was no longer a battle, but a turkey hunt. What is now unfolding in the sky is a turkey hunt, with one Japanese bomber after another shot down and countless parachutes flashing.
"The Japanese may never dare to come again." Billy MacDonald lit a cigarette and regretted it - he felt useless to see that the Japanese had been wiped out by the navy.
"No, no." Chennault shook his head, "They will at least go to Chongqing, but after May, when the fog clears." ”
"But we won't be able to deal with the Japanese at that time, even if the navy gives us a hundred saboteurs." As Chennault's deputy, McDonald was well aware of the mission that his men were tasked with: Chang Kaishen did not trust the navy, so it was impossible for the naval air force to be deployed in Chongqing, which is why Chennault was allowed to form an air force. However, naval pilots can take off and assemble in formation within 16 minutes, which is something that many veteran flying birds can hardly accomplish, and even more so those rookies who only have 100 flight hours at the Air Force Military Academy. On the contrary, the tactics of the Navy can be simply replicated, which does not require too high flying skills.
"Claire, they're out of ammo. They ran out of ammunition. Shet! Shet!! While everyone else was slacking off and smoking, Jonny Preston remained engrossed in the turkey hunt, and he soon discovered that most of the naval planes chasing the Japanese bombers were chasing, with little or no fire. This is really a regrettable thing, he wished that he could also have a plane fly into the sky to beat the Japanese with the navy, but he did not expect that the navy would actually run out of ammunition.
"Look, the Japanese are here again!" Preston only paid attention to the turkey hunt, and did not notice that another group of planes flew to the east, and it was no longer a dark green twin-engine bomber, but a silver single-engine plane.
"What's that? Fighter jets? Preston asked, not quite sure if it was a Japanese fighter jet, so he asked.
"No, it's not. This is the ...... of the Japanese Navy" Chennault thought for a moment, "yes, this is a three-seat carrier-based bomber of the Japanese Navy. ”
"Carrier-based bombers? What are they doing here? "Many people don't understand, carrier-based bombers have a small bomb load, and their performance firepower is not better than that of land-based bombers, so why did the Japanese send such bombers?
"Maybe, maybe......" Chennault said two 'maybes', but he didn't know what these silvery-white three-seater carrier-based bombers were up to. They have some small bombs under their bellies, but these planes do not take the initiative to attack or drop bombs, they only circle around Kunming City at a certain altitude, and no one can understand what they are trying to do.
The dark green bombers were shot down countless times, and the remaining bombers threw their bombs indiscriminately and fled, and when the silver-white planes began to fly high and circle, the sky was no longer green, only blue and silver.
"They, they ......" Billy McDonald stammered as he looked at the Japanese planes that were not in a hurry to drop bombs or attack, and then suddenly said, "Are they going to wait for the Navy planes to land?" Claire, how far did the Japanese carrier-based bombers go? ”
As soon as MacDonald said this, the others suddenly woke up to the fact that the navy was out of ammunition, and it was impossible to replenish it without landing, and when it landed, the Japanese would rush up and shoot it down when it landed; If you don't land all the time, it depends on which of the two sides stays in the air longer, and the voyage becomes a matter of life and death.
"Probably, I'm not sure, but they certainly won't have any less range than land-based aircraft, and I saw them when I was in Wuhan." Chennault also didn't know exactly how far the silver three-seater carrier-based bomber was, but he had seen it in the bombing of Wuhan and Chongqing, and they certainly didn't have a shorter range than the twin-engine bomber. The point is that the Navy has already fought a battle, and the fuel consumption in combat is not the same as the fuel consumption in cruising flights, and he is starting to worry about the Navy.
There was only one basket of silver left in the air to circle and confront each other, blue had no ammunition, and silver had to wait for the opponent to run out of fuel, and then beat the water dogs. It's just that the Japanese don't know that the saboteur attack aircraft have a range that exceeds their own, up to 2,200 kilometers, and even if the fuel is limited, they still have tanker aircraft to refuel; They even did not know that the fifteen saboteurs that had taken off from the Zhongwei airfield 1,400 kilometers away were refueling in the sky over Zhaotong, and that once they were refueled, they would be in great trouble.
The two sides of the confrontation in heaven had their own hearts, but the people of the earth rejoiced. They believed that the Japanese planes had already been beaten away by the Navy, and that the remaining small planes were no match for naval aircraft at all. The things in the sky seem to be over, and the ground begins to be lively again, the vendors who sell 'buttocks' shout and drink, and then there are fried pine nuts, there are a lot of pine nuts in Kunming, a big skin is thin and full of kernels, the price is cheap and delicious to eat. However, the most lively thing is a noodle stall next to the trench at the bottom of the hillside - this is a beef noodle restaurant in the city, which was bombed by Japanese planes on September 28 the year before last, and then the noodle restaurant was renovated, and the store was renamed "not afraid of frying" beef noodle restaurant. As soon as the signboard came out, the number of people who came to eat noodles and drink soup increased a lot. This time the alarm sounded before lunch, the owner of the food stall in the city knew that it was a business opportunity, and beckoned the guy to come out with the belongings, at this time the danger was no longer there, the food stalls were all put out, and the popularity of "not afraid of frying" was the most prosperous, and the diners were full for a while, and the business was not booming.
"Mother's bear, kill these turtle grandchildren!" The diners looked at the sky with their bowls, and from time to time they cursed a sentence or two to relieve their anger. As soon as he relieved his breath and felt comfortable, his stomach was even hungrier, and he waved his hand and shouted to the guy: "Quick, another bowl." ”
There was smoke from the bottom of the hillside, and people halfway up the mountain smelled the smell and ran down the mountain. Wang Shouwu was not hungry at all, how could Zhuang Liting and Wu Jikang grumble with hunger, and several girls were also hungry, as soon as Wu Jikang said that everyone was not afraid of fried beef noodles, eight or nine people happily walked down the mountain.
The white woody flowers used to be a green Masson pine forest, a thick layer of dry pine feathers under the tree, it was very soft to step on, the air was also very good, the Masson pine had a very heavy pine resin gas, and it was refreshing to smell it. The noon sun leaked through the pine branches, and a little light and shadow fell on the long-haired girl Wang Shouwu's favorite. He coughed and finally asked, "Which department is the classmate?" ”
"We're from medical school." The long-haired girl was wearing a taupe coat with a small white shirt at the neckline, she was very thin, but very tall, her hair had been tied into a ponytail when she went down the mountain, and she smiled again, "Thank you for peanuts just now." ”
As soon as the girl said thank you, Wang Shouwu blushed, but fortunately he didn't forget to ask his name: "No thanks." I am from the Department of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, my name is Wang Shouwu, may I ask your name? ”
"Hehe......" Wang Shouwu's voice seemed to be louder, and the girl in front of him immediately laughed when she heard him ask, and the girl who wanted to ask had not yet answered, and a girl in front of her learned his tone and said: "My name is Jia Baoyu, may I ask my sister your name." ”
As soon as these words came out, the girls laughed even harder, and the ponytail was shy and ran to the front. Fortunately, the short-haired girl Sang Lanhua was a good person, and she learned the tone in the play and said: "Brother Baoyu, my sister's surname is Qiao, and Fang's name is two words, called Yunhua......"
"Haha-", as soon as she learned like this, the girls made more trouble, and the shy Qiao Yunhua wanted to chase her, but she deliberately ran to Wang Shouwu's side, and asked her to come over, but it was not.
"What about my sister's name?" Wang Shouwu likes Qiao Yunhua, and Wu Jikang pays attention to the cheerful Sang Lanhua from time to time, and now she is hiding behind her, so she took the opportunity to ask.
"Her name is Sang Lanhua, she is twenty years old, and she is a person from Wuxi, ......" Qiao Yunhua was anxious and ashamed to laugh by everyone, and Wu Jikang told him loudly as soon as he asked, which provoked the laughter of the girls.
However, these laughter were soon interrupted by the sound of gunshots from ...... not far away, and the shouts of 'Stand Turtle Son' were getting closer and closer. The girls hid behind the boys, and the boys hid behind the pine trees. Before they had fully hidden, they saw a man limping towards him, sweating and clutching a pistol in his hand.
"It's Japanese!" Wu Jikang behind the tree only glanced at it and didn't dare to look at it, as soon as he said this, the girl's face turned pale.
The Japanese ran and fired his gun behind him, and he was being chased by two Dian soldiers, so he could only run into the woods, and the pine forest was dense, so he got into it.
'Smack! The gunfire was closer, but I don't know who shouted, and the hideous-looking Japanese immediately looked at it.
