Chapter 629: A Great Victory in Air Combat

At the moment when the enemy planes arrived, the antiaircraft artillery and armored vehicles of the air defense were still gathering too slowly in the direction of the air attack, and when the helicopters pounced on the enemy planes, the enemy planes blew up the group, and the bombers dodged one after another, scattering and rushing to the target. The attack planes chased the flipped helicopter in an attempt to stop the killers.

The battle broke out violently at this moment, and the sky burst into brilliant fireworks, and the bombers that broke through the blockade line rained aerial bombs like eggs. The anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns on the ground, as well as the reinforced guns, continued to roar, but they still could not stop the enemy planes from dropping bombs.

Immediately the march route burst into flames, clouds of smoke rose from the sky, taking the lives of dozens of soldiers, and trucks were smashed by bombs. The bomber crash was the result of the detonation of ammunition, which made hundreds of meters of empty space appear there, and everything on the ground turned into dust.

The anti-aircraft artillery continued to gather under the fierce bombardment, and the trucks were rushing to deliver shells, and the two armored vehicles did not care about the life of the barrels at this time, and the almost non-stop spitting of bullets and shells destroyed one bomber after another.

The helicopter was even more desperate, except for the fact that it was really impossible to dodge before meeting the attack aircraft, the rest of the time was looking for the bomber, but he did not dare to approach the range of the anti-aircraft gun, and the shells did not know that they were their own family.

Those Russian attack planes vomited blood one by one, the other party's propeller overhead planes were too flexible, and the speed was not slow, they saw the lock, but the other party was at a very small angle, a loop, and threw off the pursuit, and then bombed the pursuers with a few shots in the buttocks, so that the Soviet Russian attack planes quickly reduced in the sky.

Three attack aircraft bit a helicopter, and the chains pumped into the fuselage in front of it in the icy air.

The pilot of the helicopter jerked the nose up and did a backflip. Beautifully dodged the attack, and then the 360-degree loop, when the fuselage was parallel to the ground, was already behind the three attack planes.

"Let you chase!!"

The pilot was Li Tao, a young man in his early twenties, who evaded the pursuit and had no time to find the bomber that had escaped. The machine gun and the Vulcan cannon fired together, the nose of the aircraft swayed slightly, and the bullet chain drew an S shape and swept towards the three scattered enemy planes, and before the enemy planes were out of sight, the bullet chain was drawn on the fuselage, and then, two fireworks burst in the sky, and the tail of the plane was shattered, dragging the smoke and swirling to the ground. Immediately afterwards, a white cloud bloomed over the crashing plane.

"Yay!"

In a three-way connection, Li Tao waved his fist excitedly, and his eyes turned, looking for the next target.

At that moment, a chain of bullets leaned behind him and drew at him, but he didn't know it.

"Falcon IV rolls to the left!!"

Li Tao was excited, and an exclamation suddenly came from the headset.

He subconsciously moved the joystick and tried to roll to the left to avoid it. But the other party's shot had already been locked, and his plane had just turned sideways. A string of sparks came out of the tail, and then the tail propeller was damaged, and the smoke rose as the helicopter swirled in the air and lost control.

"Falcon IV jumps!!"

The moment the helicopter lost control, a roar rang out of his headset.

But helicopters are different from attack aircraft. It is possible to eject the cabin from above, and then open the parachute, and a runaway helicopter will not be able to jump out of the cabin without being crushed by the propeller. Whether you can escape or not, luck accounts for most of it.

Li Tao pressed the self-destruct device without hesitation in the shouting of the headset. Immediately after opening the hatch, he jumped out of the cabin during the helicopter spinning and landing.

In just a few seconds, a cloud of fireworks burst into the sky, and the helicopter exploded in the air, blowing it into pieces.

"Taozi !!"

His comrades-in-arms shouted in grief and indignation at the sight of the explosion.

Just before he shouted, the fireworks were still spreading, and a white cloud suddenly drilled out of the fireworks area, and immediately, Li Tao's figure appeared in sight.

"Hah! Attaboy!! ”

His comrades shouted, circled, and then pounced on the attack planes that were chasing their comrades not far away.

In the fierce air battle, one helicopter after another was bitten by enemy aircraft, broke the propeller, or hit the pilot, causing the helicopter to lose control and fall to the ground.

In less than ten minutes of fierce fighting, only a dozen of the 210 attack planes of the Russian army were wounded and fled to Tashkent with smoke at this time, and they no longer had the illusion of being able to fly over the Ural Mountains, and once they parachuted in the mountains and forests, their chances of surviving in the ice and snow were zero. And in the Tashkent direction, as long as you do not fall in the enemy's defense zone, even if you parachute, you have a chance to survive.

Twenty-one helicopters were shot down, and only thirteen of the pilots escaped, and none of the others escaped the cutting of the propellers in the crash. Generally speaking, if it is a fighter alone, the record of 10 to 1 can also be said to be an absolute victory in the case of being outnumbered.

And those bombers, after wreaking havoc, did not flee less than a tenth, except for being shot down by helicopters, that is, they were shot down by ground artillery fire, and in the smoke of gunpowder, a small number of figures fled in the direction of the Ural Mountains.

Seeing that twenty or thirty bombers had fled, the flight captain did not give the order to pursue. Long-distance pursuit is not the work of helicopters, they do not carry auxiliary fuel tanks in order to be flexible, and the little fuel they carry cannot even fly to the edge of the Ural Mountains, and they will run out of fuel, which is also the biggest drawback of the helicopter's poor endurance in air combat, at least for now.

The air raid ended completely in less than 20 minutes, and even the bombers that flew in the direction of chaos and left the formation were shot down by the anti-aircraft machine guns, machine guns or vehicle-mounted anti-aircraft guns of armored vehicles, and the wreckage everywhere smoked and burned fiercely. In the area where the bombardment was most severe, there was not even a regiment left in the strength of a division, and the loss of seven or eight thousand men was far away.

However, compared with the Russian army, this result is far worse in terms of numbers, and less than one-tenth of their 600 planes escaped, only more than 40 escaped from the battlefield, and a few attack planes may not be able to hold out until Tashkent landing.

As soon as the battle ended, Qu Jungang asked the helicopter to quickly replenish fuel and ammunition, while cleaning the battlefield and treating the wounded. The deceased will be cremated in a centralized manner, and the nameplate will be taken away, while reporting the situation to the command.

The loss on this side made Dong Ku and the others feel straight, but there was no way to feel distressed, the armored troops basically had no losses, and the vehicles transporting supplies were almost undamaged because they were close to the armored troops on the other side, and the battle damage of 21 aircraft was also a brilliant achievement.

Dong Ku received a report and asked Semiyi's helicopter to rush to Qu Jungang to speed up, catch up with Qu Jungang, and join the escort to ensure that the damage of the ground troops was minimized. At the same time, let Qu Jun just dismantle the machine gun and Vulcan cannon on the helicopter along with the entire firing system, dismantle the communication system, and dismantle the electronic positioning system, and collect all the technical products that the enemy cannot reach now, and as for the engine, there is no time to disassemble it, so blow it all up, and blow it up together with the body. If the self-destruct device is damaged, explosives are used, and the enemy must never be left with anything to study.

Qu Jun had just received the order to move quickly, and the helicopter took off into the air, looking for the location of the crashed helicopter in the air, counting the number, and quickly disassembling one by one, blowing it up.

According to the number of crashes, twenty of them, including the plane that Li Tao self-destructed in the air, were all dealt with, and there was nothing left behind of the current high-tech things.

The team, half an hour later, Semiy's helicopter brigade engaged in anti-missiles, replenished fuel, left the battlefield, leaving behind teams of flames and clouds of smoke, and advanced towards Orsk.

Qu Jungang left, unaware that a cavalry of 1,000 people was hiding in the woods ten kilometers away from the battlefield, and when the outpost confirmed that the battlefield was empty, this team galloped towards the battlefield.

"Put out that plane's fire! Find as many shards as you can! ”

Standing in front of a blazing helicopter, a captain ordered loudly.

"Yes!"

The Russian army shouted the order and shoveled the snow in the distance with various existing debris to extinguish the burning helicopter.

However, only the shell of this helicopter was not all shattered, there were holes everywhere, the engine of the helicopter was also broken, and it was impossible to repair it, but the research was still valuable, at least to know the general structure of the engine and estimate the power of the engine according to the cylinder diameter, and then the overall shape of the helicopter, with these parameters, imitation, it would not take a few months, maybe three or four months of experiments, and it was not known that Soviet Russia would also develop a helicopter.

It's just that the weapon system of this aircraft is gone, and it may be difficult to make it the same as Dong Ku's helicopter, or with similar performance.

As for communication, positioning and other equipment, it is even more impossible for them to know the way, at most they can come up with a helicopter imitation that is not true, a copycat product.

But this is enough, at least it will allow Soviet Russia to occupy a place in the field of helicopters and lead other countries.

Qu Jungang's army was attacked, and the Russian army didn't even have the idea of surrounding it, they didn't have such a strong air defense force as the advance army, so they didn't dare to rashly and easily withdraw their air defense positions and advance at full speed. In the face of the air attack of the advance army, they could only temporarily abandon the intention of pursuing the enemy army, first protect themselves, and then wait for the aircraft group in Tashkent to fly in as a cover, so that they could advance at full speed.

The loss of the air raid infuriated the bearded man. Most of the 600 planes were destroyed, and they did not give the enemy a fatal Shanghai. But then the news of finding the wreckage of the enemy plane, the broken engine, and the fragments of the propeller eased his depression.

"Hurry up and transport the wreckage back, the wreckage of the tank goes directly to Baku, and it is transported back to Moscow in the Caucasus!"

He regained his composure and ordered loudly. He believes that understanding the opponent is the basis for defeating the opponent, and if the gap between tanks and aircraft is resolved, then the odds of victory between them will still be on his side...... (To be continued......)
