CHAPTER VII

The warm Pacific air currents blow to Primorsky Krai, which has a temperate maritime climate, except for some humidity, which is very suitable for human habitation, and there are dense forests everywhere, and the air you breathe is so fresh. There was no bitter cold in the vast expanse of the Soviet Union, only the same tensions of the Cold War.

As the Far East of the Soviet Union, it is separated by the Sea of Japan, opposite Hokkaido of Japan, and southeast of Japan's Honshu, in this Cold War period, there is no doubt that this is the first line, and a conflict may occur at any time, turning the Cold War into a hot war.

In order to deal with the encirclement of the US-led NATO, the Soviet Union developed a huge military strength, and the southern part of Primorye is the main port city of Vladivostok in the Soviet Far East, where an excellent port is stationed, the main force of the Soviet Far East Navy, the Pacific Fleet.

The Sokolovka base in the northern town of Cyuguevka is home to the 53rd Regiment of the Soviet Territorial Defense Force, all of which are the latest MiG-25 interceptors of the Soviet Union. And now, like this one, intercepting the EP-3 electronic reconnaissance aircraft of the Americans, it is completely a daily task of the Sokolovka base.

It's just that this mission is simply too frustrating to complete! In his office on the side of the base's conning tower, the base's commander, Kozhdub Douglaev, looked at the American EP-3 electronic reconnaissance plane that had landed in the grass far from the base's runway, and then at the two MiG-25 planes that had just landed, with impatience in his eyes.

Kozhdub, the Soviet ace pilot, fought in March 943 and surrendered to Germany in May 945. During this period, he participated in 20 air battles, shot down 62 enemy aircraft, and was the number one ace of the Soviet Union.

It's a pity that this is not the base commander Kozhdub, it's just the same name.

He graduated from the aviation school at the age of 20, and has been flying MiG-5 fighters since the very beginning, and he has been at this base five years ago, and he has been here five years ago, when he was promoted to commander of this base, and since then, he has been staying here.

Arrogant, arrogant, somewhat violent, and self-righteous, when someone hears his name and immediately reacts to that ace air combat hero, he will also undeniably acquiesce and enjoy the feeling of admiration. Maybe it's a kind of virtue that all the leaders in this era have, but he still takes care of his subordinates, especially those subordinates who like to pat him on the back.

The last time he went to Moscow, after the operation, he has been given special care from above, as long as nothing major happens, in a few months, there will be a vacancy in the Moscow Territorial Defense Command, and he will be promoted to Moscow. But now, the big basket is poked out by being intercepted in turn!

Intercept an American's electronic reconnaissance plane! Generally speaking, even if their own planes pass by, make a radar lock, accompany the flight or something, the Americans will also retreat in the face of difficulties and leave. At the time of the Korean War, Kozhdub piloted a MiG-5 fighter and intercepted American planes many times.

Where, like now, there was a collision with an American plane! Moreover, the US planes have also made a forced landing at their own base!

Of course, Kozhdub would not hide this kind of important matter, and when he received a report from the control tower, he immediately reported it to his superiors, and then saw the American plane that had made a forced landing in the control tower. And now, a large number of electronics specialists are on the way to the Sokolovka base, and the Sokolovka base will also become like a powder keg, which will burn violently at any time.

Of course, the Americans will not be willing to let this electronic reconnaissance plane make a forced landing here on their own side, and they will definitely blame the malicious collision of Soviet fighters! There will even be a large-scale firefight because of this!

"Report." Just then, a voice came from outside.

"Come in." Kozhdub shouted, his eyes looking at the door, and two pilots who had just come off the plane, had not yet taken off their flight suits, and were carrying flight helmets.

"What's going on this time?" Kozhdub asked.

"It was reported that during the interception, the American pilot deliberately moved closer to our fighter plane, which led to the collision." Without waiting for Andrei to speak, Belenko had already spoken.

After all, in this interception operation, Belenko is a long plane, and he is also the acting captain of this aviation brigade.

Andrei was a little surprised by this Belenko's answer, this guy is also witty enough.

It turned out that the Americans took the initiative to do it! Kozhdub already has a plan in mind, and this report must be written like this! It's all the result of deliberate instigation by the Americans! If a serious conflict really breaks out because of this, it has nothing to do with yourself!

"Report, the Americans' reconnaissance plane has landed on us, and the Americans may take action, so we must take precautions." "They may have a large fleet of aircraft coming over and putting pressure on us," Andre said. ”

"This superior has already given instructions that the entire base will enter the first level of combat readiness." Kozhdub said.

"Yes, then we will immediately enter the first level of combat readiness." Andrei said.

"Andrey, your plane has been hit and had a stall tailspin before, and it needs to be overhauled. Belenko, your aircraft engine is about to be overhauled, it's time to change the engine. Kozhidub said: "You don't have to participate in this first-level combat readiness. ”

Kozhdub is very uneasy about Andre, this time, the first-level combat readiness is even more likely to misfire, it is better not to let Andre participate.

Andrei still wanted to fight, but was slapped by Belenko and walked out with him.

"Damn, my plane is fine, just weld it, what's going on with the commander?" Andrei said grumblingly.

"Andrey, don't you know the character of the commander yet?" Belenko said: "Think about how to write your flight report. However, you did it today, and it was really enjoyable. ”
